December 2021 Self-Love Sunday

Dearest Readers, Did I miss two consecutive months of Self-Love Sundays? Yes. Did I start posts each month and abandon them? Also yes. In all honesty, I have been finding it very difficult to come up with anything kind to say to myself the last few months. My inner critical voice has been difficult to …

Self-Love Notes to my September Self

Dear Readers,  It has been almost a month since I wrote my last blog post, which just so happened to be a self-love not to myself for August. What a month September has been. I feel like it started out on a bit of a shaky footing but ended up sagging to the ground the …

A Happy Birthday Month Self-Love Note

Dear Readers, Now that title was a mouthful! How are you doing? How is June treating you wherever you may be? June has been a busy month for me as I have finished two manuscripts, entered two short stories in a competition and received my second dose of one of the C19 vaccines! I have …

The Stack – A Book Shop Meet Cute

It wasn't the first time I had seen him there among the stacks of Rarity, my favourite book shop. But it was the first time I heard him laugh. He didn't even look up from what he was reading, not in the least bit nervous about who saw him or what it was he was …

Unsigned: A Book Shop Meet Cute

I wasn't supposed to be working today. Technically I wasn't working according to the regional manager. I was assisting with an author's Q&A that I was luckily given time off in order to attend. 'You can't imagine how busy events like this can be,' the echoes of his voice still reverberated within me. 'The very …

September Self-Love Sunday

What happened to August dearest Readers? Better yet, what happened to September?  I feel as though this year has both crept by silently stalking us and managed to speed past as well. It reminds me of those horror movies where the victim is running and the villain is slowly stalking them. No matter how fast …

Writing Prompt Wednesday – Flash Fiction Challenge

Do you want to meet? I couldn't stop myself before typing my reply: Did you seriously just ask that question? You're being absurd. Absolutely absurd. I watched the three-dot text bubble appear on the screen before disappearing. Waiting for the response. Absolutely absurd had been a bit much even for me. But at least I …

“The world did not end in a bang, or a whisper, but rather, one scream at a time…”

  The world did not end in a bang, or a whisper, but rather, one scream at a time. Its chilling sound rattled me from my sleep. I hadn't even realized I had closed my eyes. Had it been a scream? It had to have been? My thoughts stumbled around in a foggy confusion. It …

Self-Love Sunday: July Edition

Dearest Readers, How have you been? I find myself attempting to write a self-love Sunday note to myself this July when things have been weird, to say the least. We have all been struggling through the current affairs plaguing our lives from all the changes to all the heartache. This being said, I would like …
